The one on the left is too lean all the way around. The one on the right may be a bit wasty, but at least it will taste good and make great cured products.

Indeed. I'd be pretty happy with the one of the right, the only question is how it got there.

My main driver is resiliency. I'd want to be producing as many inputs in situ as possible for that reason alone. I'd be open to bringing in external inputs but ideally I'd be growing them nearby.
